River Park
River park is one of those great unknowns in the area. After a very nondescript entrance, you are greeted by miles of trails through, woods, marshy area and directly (within 5ft) along the Catawba river.
This park borders the water treatment plant and Waterford Park Golf course. Its also a great canoe launching site for the outdoors type. Maps of the area are provided and give details about the next canoe site downriver.
Good fishing too...
Oh yeah, it is located between Cherry Rd (I-77 exit 82B) and Dave lyle Blvd (I-77 exit 79) which makes for easy access. Just stop by wal-mart on dave lyle and grab a fishing pole and you are set for a relaxing time against the river.
